Report: Grand Theft Auto Movie Is Impossible

BOOM widget 118136A film based on the open-world criminal antics of Rockstar's Grand Theft Auto series is likely to never happen due to a 1977 movie of the same name, according to LA Weekly film columnist Nikki Finke.

That movie, which was directed by and starred Ron Howard (left), is said to be the source of a legal settlement in which Rockstar supposedly agreed to never make a Grand Theft Auto film as long as Fox never makes a video game based on Howard's work.
nope

Though a remake of that unrelated film has been planned for years, the game's success has apparently had no impact on its mired production. "They are nowhere on the script," said a source. "It has been one of 400 development projects for several years."
